**IDEA 1:<\/b><\/p>\n
Goal:<\/em> Volunteer app to find volunteer jobs in your area <\/span><\/p>\n This could be a matchmaking service similar to tinder\/bumble in which a person seeking volunteer opportunities could be matched with someone who needs help. <\/span><\/p>\n Examples of this could be: <\/span><\/p>\n -Looking for ten people to help clean up the beach for an hour<\/span><\/p>\n -looking for someone to babysit my special needs child for two hours<\/span><\/p>\n -looking for a group of people to pass out soup at a local soup kitchen during dinner time and then clean up the kitchen.<\/span><\/p>\n This app idea came about when I was recently searching for volunteer opportunities that I could take part in to feel fulfilled, but I couldn\u2019t find any short-term, trusted work. Sometimes, people really need help, and there are many people looking to be fulfilled in life by helping someone, but they need a way of being connected.<\/span><\/p>\n I became very interested in UXD and app design after working with the UX and engineering team at my recent internship, and feel very confident in this project idea, although it would be something I have never worked on before by myself.<\/span><\/p>\n To DO:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n -I could start my research by listing out non-profits and churches and different volunteer opportunities that might want to post on the app and contacting them for specific needs\/examples of needs.<\/span><\/p>\n -Research how background checks are done<\/span><\/p>\n -Research how an app like this would be able to be funded (ads, gov. funding?)<\/span><\/p>\n -Would have to be designed beautifully to attract people– need to hone in on UXD and web design skills<\/span><\/p>\n -Begin storyboarding\/prototyping the app design and layout<\/span><\/p>\n -App could be called: Do Good. Catchphrase could be: Do Good. Feel Good.<\/span><\/p>\n **I am considering entering the MAYO business plan with this idea.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n IDEA 2: <\/b>Digital ad campaign \/ social media campaign for music booking company\/label that I create.<\/span><\/p>\n Goal<\/em>: Create my own music label that is in charge of booking bands for concerts, putting together graphics to promote concerts, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n -I\u2019ve been booking concerts\/shows for a couple of years now, and my friends and I have shared the idea of starting our own label that represents local music artists in a way that they are not currently represented. This would mean taking something I love and am skilled at to the next level, and out of my comfort zone.<\/span><\/p>\n To DO:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n -Create a logo\/brand that is distinctive for this label<\/span><\/p>\n -Develop an entire social media campaign for this label<\/span><\/p>\n -Develop website to showcase label artists, tours, recent albums, editorial blogs about the artists, photography, video, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n -Monthly digital and print \u201czine\u201d to feature artists on label, recent music released, tour schedules, photography, etc. — could hand this out at local shows to promote the new label.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n IDEA 3:<\/b> Interactive Music Video<\/span><\/p>\n Goal:<\/em> Makes the user feel like they are in the music video of their favorite music artist using virtual reality.<\/span><\/p>\n -I have no clue how to create this, or if it is even possible. I\u2019ve always been interested in creating a music video because of my passion for music. Taking an \u201cinteractive\u201d twist on this could mean having the video game player enter the world of their favorite music video. <\/span><\/p>\n -Someone could use virtual reality to join the music video of one of their favorite artists and feel like they are right there with them. Imagine, being right next to Beyonce in the video for \u201cSingle Ladies\u201d or dancing next to BrockHampton in the locker room of their recent music videos. <\/span><\/p>\n -If this ends up being an absolutely impossible idea, the idea of creating a music video also interests me.<\/span><\/p>\n To Do:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n -Research VR and if an idea like this could actually work<\/span><\/p>\n -Figure out a way to create a database of millions of music videos that people could potentially want to be a part of<\/span><\/p>\n -Talk to people about this idea and figure out if they have any advice\/knowledge of whether this is possible or not<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" **IDEA 1: Goal: Volunteer app to find volunteer jobs in your area This could be a matchmaking service similar to tinder\/bumble in which a person seeking volunteer opportunities could be matched with someone who needs help.
